webfact Posted September 8, 2020 Share Posted September 8, 2020 Chinese "tourist" robbed of 10 million baht by five armed men at luxury housing estate in Pattaya Picture: Pattaya Update News Police aided by a contingent of Chonburi provincial police and tourist police went to in the Nong Prue area at 9 pm last night after a Chinese man was held up at gunpoint in a luxury home. Police were tight lipped about what happened and a cordon was set up to stop reporters. But they said that the Chinese man was a "tourist" and that five men had held him up at gunpoint and stolen more than 10 million baht from a safe. The house was also ransacked. The Chinese man and his group of friends were working with interpreters to help police get to the bottom of what happened. Picture: Pattaya Update News It was not clear as yet whether the robbers were compatriots of the men or Thais. CCTV is being examined to see how they got into the estate. Pattaya Update News described it as a billion baht development with 30 million baht value houses built on a hillside.

Just think about the endless list of legal activities, that generate this amount of cash money that you don't want to deposit into a bank account. 16 2 2 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Matzzon Posted September 8, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted September 8, 2020 Tourist? 30 million baht villa? 10 million in a safe? Yep, I am sure all this was correct. The poor guy got stuck during the pandemic and while living on amnesty he just took out 10 million baht on his card and put it in his "rented" safe. ???????????????? If e stop and think about that summary, then we all understand why the police are very tight lipped. ???????????? 2 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Be interesting to find out if the thieves were local or Chinese. Never ever let people know what valuables you have, keep a low profile and beware who you have round your home. These jobs always have inside information. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
